Elon Musk’s Boring Company Is Tunneling Beneath Las Vegas With Little Oversight
www.propublica.org
Given Musk’s role advising President-elect Donald Trump on ways to slash regulations and government oversight, Boring and the Vegas Loop project might be a harbinger for the country.

Summary

Elon Musk’s Boring Company is rapidly expanding the “Vegas Loop,” a 68-mile underground Tesla-based transit system approved with minimal public input and regulatory oversight.

Backed by the Las Vegas tourism authority, the project bypasses federal environmental reviews and standard public transit scrutiny.

Despite safety, labor, and environmental violations, Boring faces modest fines and continues construction.

Critics, including former Mayor Carolyn Goodman, highlight concerns over safety, accessibility, and untested technology, but local officials and businesses support the project, viewing it as a vital traffic solution.

The Loop may set a precedent for deregulated infrastructure projects.
